Mr. Grey will see you now!

Hey everybody:) Today I have a post inspired by the up coming movie Fifty Shades of Grey. I really enjoyed these books and I'm hoping the movie is as good as they are making the hype up to be. For this mani I wanted something simple, like how this love between Christian and Anastasia starts off with a simple meeting.
I used Color Club Mamba and Colors by Llarowe  Smokin' in the Boys Room for this mani. Here is my Mr. Grey will see you now!

Now if you don't get this mani.... then you haven't read the books. I like the simplicity of this mani, it really says get to the room and I'll be back with only the tie!!!  Hot Damn!
Leave me a comment and tell me what you think and if you're going to see the movie.

Happy Polishing Everyone!
Love,
~Anne~

31 Days of October... Graveyard Mani

Hey everybody:) Today I have a graveyard mani to share with y'all, I originally saw this from Pinterest...HERE is the LINK ! I LOVE this mani and all the creepiness that goes with it! I started off with a base of Colors by Llarowe Smokin' in the Boys Room; then I sponged SinfulColors Cinderella around the center, I wanted a fog effect. After that had time to dry I painted (using Colors by Llarowe Licorice) on the hand, trees, tombstones, bats and pumpkins. Here is my Graveyard  Mani!

I love how everything looks like its in a fog almost at twilight! Leave me a comment and tell me what you think of this mani!

Happy Polishing Everybody!
Love,

Elsa?

Do you want to build a snowman? No it's not snowing here. Maybe you have heard of a movie called Frozen? If you have kids your chances on hearing about or seeing this movie might be greater! I personally loved the movie!!! So when I went to work on a Halloween manicure I knew just what I wanted. One of the top 10 Halloween costumes for kids this year happens to be costumes from Frozen . So here is my manicure!

I used Colors by Llarowe Surf My Wave as my base on all of my nails. For my thumb, index, and pinkie fingers I used LLC-A stamping plate (sorry not sold anymore) that features snowflakes which is perfect for what I wanted. On my thumb I added a star gem to add a little sparkle. With my middle and ring fingers I decided to water marble. I used Cult nails Nakizzle's Shizzle (lighter blue) and Time Traveler (darker blue and I feel bad I didn't get the Dr. Who reference right away ....even though I don't watch the show I have a few friends that do) and I also used Colors by Llarowe's Surf my Wave again. My Ring finger is sporting a crown from Bundle Monster plate 304.

 

 

 

I hope you enjoyed today's manicure for Halloween! I had fun making and wearing it. I hope everyone has a great day!! Tell me are you going to a party and need a manicure idea? Leave a comment and maybe we (Anne and I of course) can help!

Gemini Rising



Hi all today I have for you my favorite Holographic from Colors by LLarowe that I was sent. Gemini Rising is a beautiful GREEN holo (that I was sent for review). G.R. unfortunately stained my nails the first time I wore it. Lucky for me I was wearing it on my toes for vacation. So this time wearing it I knew to put on a green base color (2 coats of green and one two coats of Gemini Rising) that wouldn't stain my nails. Gemini Rising is a gorgeous holographic green that is very eye catching! I paired it today with tear drop lite green nail jewels (you can't really tell they are lite green though).

 

 

 In the shade Gemini Rising is still stunning!

 

I enjoyed wearing this color and find it a wonderful bright, cheerful green! Here is where you can find Gemini Rising if you are looking to add her to your polishes. Here is Gemini Rising's Holo family none of these will disappoint you if you are looking for a wonderful holographic!

Young Turks for tips!

Hi all I was really in the mood for a French mani this weekend. Picking a color always seems to be hard for me so I reached over into my untried and came away with Young Turks from Colors by Llarowe (which I was sent for review). Young Turks is a great turquoise holo. I think everyone knows by now I can not say no to a holo and this was no exception.  I also added a flower with  BM318 stamped with Konad white because I had the time before I had to go anywhere. I found the iridescent diamond in my nail art stuff and thought it would be a great add!

 

 In the Shade Young Turks is still stunning!

 

Yes stunning in or out of the sun! What's your favorite Holo from Colors by Llarowe? I'll share mine next week! It's a stunner!!! Have a great weekend!

Purple is my Crack and Candy is Dandy!

Hi all today's post is what I'm wearing this weekend (I was sent these for review)! I wasn't 100% sold on wearing Purple is my Crack until I put it on! You need to know this color is gorgeous!! It's purple jelly with micro holo! It shines in the sun so much so when I went to take the pictures I said oh boy! This one I can see myself getting distracted with. I'm putting it on my toes as soon as I need a color change which might happen sooner than I need one.
I decided to wear Purple is my Crack with Candy is Dandy because I was in the mood for purple! For me you can't go wrong with purple the more purple the better!!! Candy is Dandy didn't disappoint either....a smooth orchid crelly (crème jelly).

 

 

Yup I'm ready for this weekend! What's on your nails for the weekend?

Colors by Llarowe- Holo swatch and Review

Hey everybody:) Today I have 4 of the holo polishes from Colors by Llarowe to share with y'all, she sent me these for review. Are y'all ready for some HOLO goodness??!!! I love holo polishes and these polishes deliver in a big way! Lets get started.

Surf my Wave is a blue holo polish that goes on in two coats. This polish is as perfect as the name it was given, it looks like the bluest water and shines like the sun at the beach!

Young Turks is a aqua holo polish that goes on in two coats. This polish I liked so much for my vacation last week I put this on my toes and got tons of compliments on how pretty it was and the great holo effect.

House of Blues is a purple holo that goes on in two coats. This polish is one of the prettiest purple holos out there, great color and the holo is so super awesome.

I added this one cause you can see the great holo, even though I caught a shadow!

Gemini Rising is a green holo polish that goes on in two coats. This polish has to be one of the prettiest green holos I've ever seen (and for ones that know me, know I don't care for green polish). This looks like the greenest grass you have ever seen and with the holo it is prefect for summer!

OMG! These holo hit the nail on the head! Perfect for summer and are so super pretty! Just a quick note- use a base coat with these, I had a little staining from the polishes.

Colors by Llarowe- Shimmer and Glitter Swatch and Review

Hey everybody:) Today I have some more Colors by Llarowe- 3 Shimmers and a Glitter polish to share with y'all, she sent me these for review. Are y'all ready for some of the prettiest shimmers and glitter polishes that I've seen in a while? Let's get to it!

Holiday Road is a lime green polish that has a peachy shimmer. This polish is so super pretty with the peachy shimmer and the way it catches the sun and shines! The only thing I will say is it does require several coats and is still thin(see through).

Alternate Universe is a aqua polish that has a gold/copper shimmer to it. This polish is summer in a bottle, aqua is a hot summer color and with the shimmer in the gold/copper color- perfect complimenting colors!

Connie's Nosy Neighbor is a violet polish that has a magenta shimmer to it. What a get name! This polish shines like nobodies business! Great combo and perfect for summer!

Purple is my Crack is a purple polish that has holo glitter! I love a good holo and this polish even though it just has holo glitter really packs a punch! My favorite polish so far! Great summer color and the holo gives you that shine that every polishaholic needs!

These polishes are so super pretty and overall worth every penny they cost! Love all the colors and the way they shine! If you way to see more from Llarowe just follow the LINK HERE! Leave me a comment and tell me what you think of these polishes:)

Colors by Llarowe- Jellies Swatch and Review

Hey everybody! Today I have 5 Jellies to share with y'all from Colors by Llarowe, they were sent to me for review. Let's jump right into the action!

Blue Jeans & Beauty Queens is a blue jean color jelly polish that goes on in two coats. This polish color is that blue jean color that your mom worn back in the day (I'm talkin' back in the day!) ... even though it's that color it is super pretty and looks great on!

Somkin' in the Boys Room is a grey jellie polish that goes on in 2 coats. I love grey and this polish is a grey that you will want to add to your collection. Grey goes with everything... pink, blue, black, white etc. Perfect for those accent nails that I love to do!

Summer... Finally! is a neon pink jellie that I had to use three coats to get what I have in the picture, it dries to almost a matte finish- so with or without a top coat is fine. I really love this color but was a little disappointed in the fact I had to use three or more coats to get the look I wanted and for it not to be a sheer polish. But never the less it is a pretty color for summer.

Licorice is a black jellie polish that goes on in two coats. I love a good black and this polish is just that a good black!

Coconut is a white jellie polish that goes on in three or more coats. Again with Coconut I found that I needed to add three or more coats to have the polish cover the way I wanted it too. This is a pretty white that after you get your three coats on I didn't see any lines or smears.

Overall these polishes are super pretty but I wished they covered a little quicker than three coats on some. If you are looking for Jellies these are where its at! If you want to find more Colors by Llarowe follow the LINK HERE. Leave me a comment and tell me what you think of these polishes!

Colors By Llarowe- Crellies Swatch and review

Hey everybody:) I'm back from vacation with the swatches of Colors by Llarowe for y'all, she sent me these for review. I wanted to start this week with the crellies- crellies are a cream and a jelly polish all in one! Lets get started!

Read my Lips, More New Colors is a neon orange/peach polish that dries to a almost matte finish, it's a two coat polish. I love this color and the almost matte finish! It's a great color for summer and will pop with a great tan! AAH! So pretty, so neon, SO SUMMER!

Candy is Dandy is a lavender polish that has a semi matte finish, I used two coats. This polish is such a delicate color, so beautiful on and is great for that summer wedding that you have to go to or just a perfect color for the week.

Liquor is Quicker is a blurple polish that has a regular shiny finish, I did two coats. I really like this polish, it is a great in between color (between blue and purple). My picture really brings out the purple side but in real life it got a touch more blue.

Overall these crellies are great polishes that are perfect for those last minute vacations to the beach. Summers not over and these give you that feeling! If you want to see more from Llarowe click on the LINK HERE! Leave me a comment and tell me what you think of these polishes:)
